About Hito Galaxy Battleship Heavy-Load Platform AMR

Hito Galaxy Battleship is a heavy-load platform autonomous mobile robot for industrial transport. The robot moves components along automated assembly lines and can replace traditional conveyor belt systems. The body is made of aluminium alloy and engineering plastic, with layered forms and lighting around the frame, moving away from the plain sheet metal boxes common in the field. A modular structure unifies component standards and supports a serial product family. The robot measures 2310 by 1615 by 375 millimetres and carries one to three tons.

Award Record

Toall Design - Zhen Lian and Heng Li is a winner of 1 A' Design Award, including this recognition.

Design Details

Unique Properties
HITO heavy-load platform autonomous mobile robot creates a series product image like "Galaxy Warship" through outstanding industrial design. Through layered modeling design language and combined with the lighting design around the body, it reflects the brand's exclusive PI image and subverts the industry impression of traditional sheet metal parts.It can reduce the compreh ensive cost of production and logistics construction of enterprises by 30-50%.
Inspiration
HITO Galaxy battleship series heavy-load platform autonomous mobile robot, this series of products can be widely used in the manufacturing and logistics transportation fields of automobile industry, new energy, aerospace, rail transit and other industries.In automated assembly lines, processing components that can carry various weights can be moved, replacing traditional conveyor belt assembly lines.
Research
HITO Galaxy battleship series heavy-load platform autonomous mobile robot, this series of products can be widely used in the manufacturing and logistics transportation fields of automobile industry, new energy, aerospace, rail transit and other industries.In automated assembly lines, processing components that can carry various weights can be moved, replacing traditional conveyor belt assembly lines; Combined with the engineering software developed by HITO, flexible production lines can be quickly adjusted or even reorganized.
Challenge
The current AMR products in the market are limited by production processes and costs, and are mostly square sheet metal boxes. The manufacturing process is very traditional, where the sheet metal parts are directly bent, welded, and then painted, resulting in a monotonous and bulky appearance. TOALL DESIGN adopts a modular structure design strategy, combining multiple conventional processes and unifying component standards to balance the relationship between shape and cost.
Realization and Technology
Material:Aluminum alloy and engineering plastic It subverts the industry impression of traditional sheet metal parts; The industrial design scheme adopts the structural innovation to realize the product serialization and modular design of engineering assembly.
Operation and Interaction
Flexible transportation of various heavy objects, replacing traditional conveyor belt assembly lines;Reorganizing traditional processes to achieve a balance between styling and cost ; Win attention and large orders in overseas markets with new craftsmanship and styling,It can reduce the compreh ensive cost of production and logistics construction of enterprises by 30-50%.
Project Duration and Location
HITO Galaxy battleship autonomous mobile robot is a heavy-duty robot developed based on industrial production needs, The project started in May 2022 and finished in July 2022 in Shanghai.It has been receiving factory orders for customized sales worldwide since September, 2022.
